sustainable & innovative crating solutions

Honeycomb Boards

Rebul kraft and graphic honeycomb boards are made by fabricating kraft paper to form a continuous triangular series of cells resulting in paper honeycomb core. After that, the paper honeycomb core is laminated with kraft paper on both sides. Creating robust boards that can withstand compressive, shear, and bending loads that are up to 80% lighter compared to those made of traditional materials.

Their high crush to strength ratio of the boards offers designers, manufacturers, and board converters with a cost effective alternative to fiberglass, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), foam and plywood boards when cost and weight are prohibitive.

The boards are lightweight, versatile, and easy to work with. To practically fit any purpose, they can be bonded to a range of facing materials, painted, printed on, sized, cut, shaped, and bent. Can be easily cut using a knife, handsaw or electric saw, and CNC depending on desired use, capability, and application.

Common application and uses

All applications of honeycomb boards have acoustic and insulating properties and offer protection against impact. They can be printed, folded, laminated, shaped, v-cut, double v-cut, double folded, photo mounted, painted and vinyl pressed. Common uses are and are not limited to furniture manufacturing, construction, insulation, partitioning, printing, packaging, corner protectors, 3D structures, and point of sale displays.

Because of their lightweight nature and ability to offer economic and performance benefits without sacrificing design and build standards, they are also being effectively employed in the interiors of RVs, boats, airplanes, and cars without compromising on structural integrity.

Within our own facilities we use the boards to make recyclable and lightweight packaging solutions, including freight crates, interlock crates, hybrid crates, and pallets. These eco-friendly alternatives underscores our commitment to sustainable packaging practices using honeycomb paper and honeycomb paper products with various benefits.

In addition, we help with specific projects and, upon request, provide custom board lengths and thicknesses (subject to pricing and terms and conditions).

Honeycomb boards recommended storage and handling 

Small quantity orders are delivered upright. All large quantity orders will are delivered palletized for easy handling and storage.

They must be stored flat (horizontally), preferably in cooler conditions, away from direct sunlight or heat. The boards may warp. Do not use weight to prevent this. Allow the boards to warp and simply turn them and allow some time for them to return to original shape. Slight warping will occur as far down as 5 to 10 boards. For immediate use simply remove the top warped ones to access flat ones below them.
